Couldn't load pickup availability
Engineered for maximum durability in high-torque steering environments, the EMPI 7/8" Splined Quick Release is the professional choice for trophy trucks, heavy-duty sand rails, and competitive off-road racers. This two-piece set allows for the immediate removal of your steering wheel, providing essential clearance for entering and exiting cramped race cockpits and ensuring rapid egress during emergency situations.
Featuring a precision-machined fine-spline engagement, this hub eliminates the "play" or "slop" often found in cheaper hex-style disconnects. The heavy-duty pull-ring mechanism is designed for a positive lock, ensuring your wheel stays securely attached through the harshest whoops and landings.
Key Features
-
Heavy-Duty 7/8" Bore: Designed to be welded onto a 7/8-inch diameter steering shaft, providing a larger surface area for superior weld penetration and strength compared to standard 3/4" units.
-
Precision Fine-Spline Drive: Ensures a tight, repeatable fit every time the wheel is reinstalled, maintaining perfect steering alignment.
-
Dual-Pattern Mounting Holes: The 3-bolt flange is pre-drilled and tapped for both 5/16-18 and 1/4-20 bolts, making it compatible with nearly all standard off-road and racing steering wheels.
-
Hollow Steel Shaft: The weld-on splined stub is hollowed out to minimize weight while retaining maximum torsional strength.
-
Rapid Disconnect: The spring-loaded pull-ring allows for instantaneous removal with a single hand, even while wearing racing gloves.
